Nickname given to Billie Holiday by Lester Young (4,3)

I believe the answer is:

lady day

(Other definitions for lady day that I've seen before include "March twenty-fifth" , "Nickname of Billy Holiday" , "Feast of the Annunciation, March 25th" , "festival" , "25 March" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
